June Hackday - Lifx Smart Tiles (Part 3)

Last June we had a Hackday at Kogan.com! This Hackday’s focus on displaying information and providing useful alerts using hardware and software. Teams were asked to express something they find interesting through one of the available mediums.

In this third and final part of the series Jake will talk a bit about Team LifxnChill.

Kogame (Koh-Gah-Mi) - A real time game in Django

For our March hackday this year we decided to build a multiplayer game using

[Django Channels](https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). We've been keeping

an eye on channels over the time, and thought with the release of channels 2.0 that

it was the right time to dive in and get some practical experience. The organisers

didn't want to do yet-another-chat-system implementation, so they decided to make

things a bit more interesting, and look at writing a real-time game.
